qwen-agent

Offload menial, self-contained tasks to a Qwen model running inside a headless Claude Code instance (claude-9arm). Keeps expensive Claude reasoning for work that needs it.

The command

claude-9arm is a shell alias → claude --model qwen3.6-35b-a3b routed through the 9arm gateway. Run it headless with -p:

claude-9arm -p "<self-contained task prompt>" --allowedTools Bash Read Edit Write Glob Grep

• This is the default invocation. The flag list scopes which tools the subagent may use without a prompt, so it can finish a menial job unattended. Without it the subagent stalls waiting for approval on the first edit or command.
• The alias bakes in --allowedTools '*', which Claude Code silently ignores with a warning (Wildcard tool name "*" is not supported). That warning is expected and harmless — the --allowedTools you append is what takes effect.
• For edit-only, lower-risk tasks you may instead use --permission-mode acceptEdits (auto-accepts file edits, but Bash still prompts — don't use it for verification/build/test runs).

Writing the task prompt (most important step)

The qwen subagent has zero context from this conversation. A vague prompt is the #1 failure mode. Every prompt must be standalone:
